The workflow_run event context doesn't have an 'inputs' property. For workflow_run events, you should use '${{ github.event.workflow_run.head_branch }}' for the head branch and specify the base branch directly or use workflow_run conclusion data.

The hardcoded placeholder title should be replaced with a dynamic value or proper configuration. Consider using workflow_run metadata like '${{ github.event.workflow_run.display_title }}' or constructing a meaningful title.
